Financial Planning

Do you really know who's calling?

At Leek United, we are regarded as ‘a safe pair of hands’ for your money and we take security very seriously.

But there are those who will stop at nothing to breach that security and try to get their hands on your account details.

There have recently been reports locally of bank and building society customers being contacted by people trying to obtain personal information. This type of fraud is extremely common and customers need to be on their guard and aware that they, too, could be targeted.

Callers can often come across as very plausible; it’s easy for anyone picking up the telephone to them to be lulled into a false sense of security. We urge all our customers to ensure they keep their personal details safe and do not divulge them to third party callers under any circumstances.

If you ever receive a call requesting account details or other such sensitive information, and are in any doubt that it is Leek United calling, you should telephone the Society back on our main switchboard number – 01538 384151.

Things to remember...

Leek United will never ask you to send your account information via Twitter or other social media;

Never give out your banking details via Twitter or any other social media channel;

My experience with Leek United over the past 5 years has been a pleasant contrast to other financial organisations I have dealt with. It has been a pleasure to deal with real people who seem to enjoy and take a pride in their jobs.
